OLIMEXINO-5510 user's manual
1.2 Target market and purpose of the board
OLIMEXINO-5510 is intended to work with Energia - an Arduino-like IDE for MSP430. The
community is working on adding full support for Energia. At the time of writing this manual such
support isn't fully added but it is on the way. When such support is implemented there will be
software examples below in Energia format.
OLIMEXINO-5510 was specially designed for the EasyMSP project which is created by Matthew
Burmeister (a.k.a. MattTheGeek from 43oh.com). Matt did amazing work by creating Arduino-like
language and commands to compile with MSP430 hardware just adding these in header files, so
they compile with MSPGCC. However, personal problems restrained Matthew to finish the project
he started. That is why Energia is the now default and recommended development environment.
The target market are the MSP430 fans and electronics beginners. People with better understanding
of software than hardware. Arduino platform fans.
